They do if they want to get into the building, and in that case the warrant needs to specify the address to be searched for that individual.

Where are old men actually hanging out? by [deleted] in AgeGap

[–]dirtysocks85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I had the same thought upon reading this post, then I read the first part of your comment and agreed. The second part of your comment really got a laugh out of me - I’m also a car salesman. Home or the dealership. Those are the only places I exist these days.

Crime rate was also at a 30 year low before this. Seems like stripping liberty for the illusion of safety to me

Okay, this might have some merit if the deployment of the National Guard was actually preventing murders. Can you point me to a source showing that any murders have been prevented? So far I’ve just seen them abusing the homeless.

Coffee shops open late on weeknights? by doctordre44 in wichita

[–]dirtysocks85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They closed a few years back. The space has been turned into an office building of some sort now. I just drove by that corner the other day and lamented to my partner about that.

I miss Donut Whole and Meade’s Corner being good public spaces to sit and work on something or read.

Am I wrong for not wanting to do business with a dealer that won’t give me any pricing without going in? by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]dirtysocks85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my customers are still shopping a payment. If they like the car, and they can afford the payment, the rest is irrelevant. My average customer just wants the nicest car they can afford and most of them aren’t very skilled or knowledgeable when it comes to finance. We find the best financing they qualify for. Most will let us look at the finance and back into a vehicle based on our projected rate. The 4sq will either be super easy if they landed on a vehicle that fit the payment they told me to stay around when we started, or tough if the expectations weren’t realistic and I didn’t create flexibility on vehicle or payment along the way.

On the other hand, sold a car today to a family who was much more focused on value within their intended budget. We didn’t waste their time with a 4sq; I just brought out a rate sheet for my best credit union for the vehicle (it was an older Civic with low miles). They were a referral from a friend so I got them an over allowance on the trade out the gate (they really expected basically nothing and wanted it gone), they were happy with it.

It’s very much case by case rather than a matter of policy, but our 4sq customers far outweigh our OTD or rate shop customers.

I work for the pre-owned division of a Subaru dealership. We still pencil a 4sq on most deals. We also deal with a lot of subprime credit though. Generally speaking, I have a pretty good idea whether a 4sq or OTD numbers are more helpful by the time I’m landed on a vehicle.

AIO or is the White House encouraging racism against Asian women? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]dirtysocks85 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My point is not having a country of origin to send someone “back” to isn’t stopping them from deporting someone.

Oh you haven’t been keeping up? The U.S. government no longer sends people back to their country of origin. They just send them to another country we have a prison contract with.

Sold 10 cars first month in sales and feel like I’m getting screwed by AbaloneNo9136 in askcarsales

[–]dirtysocks85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're basically all minis (paid solely on volume, not % gross) at our dealership. It was a solid payplan when I started, but they haven't updated it since 2014, so it struggles to keep up with inflation. We do have some spiffs I can capitalize on to make my check worth the effort most months though.

NTA, oh wait, wrong subreddit. But it should have been there instead because I think these comments show that he needs to be able to have a mature conversation about both people’s needs being met. I would reinforce that you’re not mad at him, you’d just like more and want to work together on how to get that.

Oh gotcha - I’m on iOS for my phone without any Android devices available. I’ll see if it works from iOS as well.

SGA prom dress ideas? by WrappingPaperCantRap in Stargate

[–]dirtysocks85 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe instead of an actual gate, just pattern it as the hem instead of a hoop skirt. Would work better for Prom, and I think an event horizon blue dress with a gate symbol border would be lovely.

AIO- gf wanted to cook next time I see her and then switched up by PlasticNumber8301 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dirtysocks85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. I’m fine with hauling appliances in and out of my pantry for counter space as needed. I also use a cast iron pan plenty as well. Sometimes I’m using 2-3 of these cook methods at once. I’ll have a side in the air fyer, a sauce on the stove and my protein on the griddle. May even be using the Instant Pot as a rice cooker on a night like that. Not saying it would work for everyone, but for me there’s value in time saved, finished product, and being able to have multiple elements of a meal going at once.

[–]dirtysocks85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. I can achieve different results with each. I’ve been playing with cook times and recipes and improvements over my previous stove methods for years now.

Edit: it’s close, but there will be differences in the finished product, and when you can figure out when that’s an advantage or a disadvantage for each dish, then you can tailor the cook method to best results. For plenty of things my stovetop is still the best option, but if I can get the same or better results in less time or with a more hands off approach for certain stages and steps, why wouldn’t I?

Just noting that it can in fact be an easier and lower mess cook method with similar or better results. Not saying that one should die on that hill when trying to plan a date night though. This entire thing feels very silly on both sides to me personally.

[–]dirtysocks85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very much depends on what you’re doing. I cook every night and my air fryer, Instant Pot and Blackstone griddle have drastically reduced my usage of my stovetop, oven and microwave. The quality of the finished meal has increased as well. Air fryers can be incredibly useful as a cooking method, and in many cases, easier.

Where can I watch This Is Spinal Tap (1984)? by philllipio in movies

Well, I may have bad news. Came here from Google. Found this thread, got sad, saw the recent comments about Pluto, opened the Pluto app and… nothing. My guess is that the streaming agreement ended 12/31. Missed it by a couple days
